76 LARKWAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bedford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 76 LARKWAY sales between August 2003 and August 2014 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the February 2004 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the August 2014 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
